Spring 2024 CBODN Mentoring Program
This spring, CBODN will once again offer a mentoring program for professionals coming into and expanding their practices within the field of OD.
About the Program:
- The purpose of the program is to provide a mentoring experience for CBODN members and non-members that is enriching and educational for all involved.
- Group mentoring will involve 3-5 people working together with a mentor on topics of interest to the mentees.
- The mentees’ role is to contribute to the questions and content that the group will cover.
- The mentor’s role is to hold space for the group’s conversation, ensuring the experience is inclusive and allows for active participation by all.
- Each group will aim to meet every other week, 5 times over 10 weeks, from the second week of April through the second week of June.
- Mentors and mentees will be paired at an orientation session the first week of April based on common interests and days/times that work best.
- Topics will be generated by the group’s participants, including offers to share with the group and requests for knowledge or information. Every individual participating in a group will serve as a source of knowledge and support to the group as a whole, and not just the person in the mentor role.
- Each group will create its own contract around confidentiality and sharing of each other’s contact information.
- The program will conclude with a report out meeting to share feedback that helps improve future rounds of this work!
